: 70 Big Block - Chevy Orange? curtls6 Mar 14th, 01, 3:56 AM Hi Guys. My engine is at the body shop getting ready to be painted. Is there a paint code out there for my big block engine "Chevy Orange". If not who makes an excellent match of the original shade of orange in a spray can so my painter can match it up. Thanks, Curtis. pipeman Mar 14th, 01, 5:37 AM I had my local PPG jobber mix up a quart of chevy orange acrylic enamel, Have been using it for a couple of years on assorted engine projects and it still looks great. I will see if I can find the # and post it for you. alss Mar 14th, 01, 6:15 PM The Chevy orange paint from Ground Up..the "details" brand is what I have used on all my cars...great coverage,good color and a spray can you can throw away when done...Albert ------------------ 69 Chevelle SS 396 350hp convt. 4spd w/ac 69 SS-RS Camaro GMPP ZL-1 w/DNE 5-Spd 70 Chevelle LS-5 M-22 Cpe ACES 1805 curtls6 Mar 17th, 01, 4:35 AM Thanks for the replies.
